All are welcome at Saint Monica

The sacred purpose of St. Monica Parish is to build a welcoming community of faith, creating missionary disciples who make God's love visible through service to others.

Mutually Shared Vision (Archdiocese of San Antonio)

Seeking to live in sacramental communion with one another, the Archdiocese of San Antonio exists to make disciples and missionaries of Jesus Christ to prepare for the promise of Eternal Life.

Our parish was founded in 1960 and we serve the amazing people of Converse and surrounding area in the Archdiocese of San Antonio.

We invite you to a Mass, one of our parish events, or praying in our chapel.
